THE BENEFITS OF POSITIVE COUNSELLING
Career Prospects

When we need some help with trauma, grief, loss of direction or help with chronic issues, counselling can be very beneficial, giving us assistance in finding ways to deal with these times. However, counselling isn't only for the rough times. It can be beneficial for many reasons and at many times in our lives.
As a self-awareness tool, it can also help us reinforce the positive aspects of life. For example:
Life Direction
We know where we want to be (or we don't) but we're not quite sure what the next step is, this is when an objective ear can help. We can get so caught up in the destination we are seeking that we get confused or lost in the journey. Counselling can assist us to find new or different directions that we may not have thought about to get us moving on that journey again.
Life conditioning and societal constraints (self-imposed or by others) can lead us to have tunnel vision when it comes to earning a living. Talking with someone who is not invested or involved in our daily lives can often give us a fresh perspective of our day to day income producing prospects. Remember those dreams you had as a child? Revisit those - maybe there is a way to earn a living from those passions you had when you were younger. It is never too late to change course or try a new pursuit.
Self Esteem or Self Image
It is so easy to get caught up in the "this is what you should look like/behave/sound/express" way of life. We are constantly bombarded with standards that are imposed by those that are trying to make us feel insecure about who we are, so they can sell us something to make us believe we will be more acceptable. But no matter how much we buy or try to make us feel more accepted and acceptable, the truth is that if we are not happy with ourselves the way we are, no manner of "things" or potions are going to make us feel better. Counselling can help you work on self-acceptance and self-love - the first steps to feeling great.
Finding Joy and Peace
Stress can have so many detrimental effects on our mind, body and soul. Learning techniques to manage and handle our stress, if we can't totally eliminate it from our lives, can help us to find more peace and joy in our day to day existence. At times, just offloading the emotional baggage you are carrying around can bring relief and a sense of lightness. It isn’t always easy to share deep feelings with those close to you, especially if they are a contributing factor, so unburdening with a counsellor can be very cathartic. There are many ways we can work together to manage and dissolve that stress from your life. Tools such as meditation, mindfulness, breath work and stretching can assist our bodies and minds to relax and release the tensions that build up.
These are just a few of the positive aspects of counselling. It's not all about the dark side of life although counselling can be extremely beneficial in those times also. It is important to reach out if you need assistance to improve your mental health and wellbeing. We all deserve to feel great and experience joy and peace in our lives.
